["ASF GitHub Bot (Jira)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MPLUGIN-510?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=17830118#comment-17830118 ] 

ASF GitHub Bot commented on MPLUGIN-510:
----------------------------------------

hboutemy opened a new pull request, #274:
URL: https://github.com/apache/maven-plugin-tools/pull/274

   instead of listing a long list of plugin releases, each on their own row, even if they share same system requirements, they are now grouped in a single row marked "from x to y"

> in MPLUGIN-400, we added the feature with a list of versions of the plugin, associated to Maven and JDK prerequisite https://maven.apache.org/plugin-tools-archives/plugin-tools-3.7.0/maven-plugin-report-plugin/report-mojo.html#requirementshistories
> => started to use for example: [https://maven.apache.org/plugins-archives/maven-assembly-plugin-3.6.0/plugin-info.html]
> this lead to questions: should we fill each and every past version? Or should we group by common prerequisites, showing only ranges?
> Tested the range approach: [https://maven.apache.org/plugins-archives/maven-assembly-plugin-LATEST/plugin-info.html]
> the range approach looks good: minimum lines (vs listing every version), clear choice for users (choose the latest in the range, or pick any intermediate one)
> now, we need to rework the m-p-p configuration to replace "version" with "from" + "to", instead of hijacking the "version" field to store a String "from x to y"
